hat’s a hard question. I would divide my answer between a city in my country (Brazil) and an international city. In Brazil, I would choose Ouro Preto. It is a city I have never visited and it has many old, classical churches. In my opinion, its aesthetics and atmosphere capture the “essence” of the Brazilian countryside. As for an international city, considering my current level of fluency in foreign languages, I would choose Portugal, especially Fátima, which has great symbolism and importance for Roman Catholics. It would be a very meaningful experience for me.

I think it depends on the type of school and on the context. For example, if we are talking about someone learning another language in a foreign country, in a school located in that country, this is one of the best ways to learn. You will probably meet people with difficulties in different areas, others who are already fluent, and you will need to use the language you are learning all the time. However, if it is a school in your home country, and you do not seek exposure outside the classroom, but simply wait to become fluent naturally, you will not make much progress. In common cases like this (a school in your home country), I think it is better to focus on online learning. Many people even prefer this option, because it allows them to study in their own time and from any place. So, if the goal is mainly to obtain a certificate for work, I would choose online learning without any doubt. Ideally, an in-person course with a good and recognized certificate is great to take, but you should never depend on it alone.

Hmm, that’s a great question. I don’t usually listen to music to improve my mood (this sounds strange, I know). I mostly use music to study or to prepare myself for prayer, or I just listen to it casually on YouTube Shorts. But when it comes to songs that boost my mood, I would say Michael Jackson (especially Beat It and Billie Jean) and nightcore music. The reason is the energetic rhythm, which helps me express emotions and even makes me feel like dancing — even though I don’t actually dance, lol.

I think it depends. I’m 19 years old, and in the countryside we generally don’t have many opportunities to grow in life, so city life tends to be better. For people who have many interests in culture and education, you don’t usually find these things in rural areas. However, when I reach retirement age, it would be a great idea to return to the countryside (in theory, I already live in a small town, so it would be more like returning). A more peaceful life is very appealing.

If I were to gain US$1 million, first I would pay off my fathers’ debts. After that, I would use part of the money to create an emergency fund, another part for investments, and the rest I would spend on religious items (icons, images, medals…), books, gifts for friends, donations to the Church and people in need, trips in Brazil and Europe, and courses I want to take… so many things, lol. One million dollars is about five million reais, so it’s a lot of money.

@Gabriel Silva I would say it’s a bit of both. Wealth is a great tool to help other people, because when you have wealth, you have the ability to choose how to use your money, and that makes it easier to help others.
